I'm a little concerned about the sand bars in Central Jersey and longer period ground swell. The Oct 20th swell was what? a 7-8 sec period, and the bars had built up so big and close to the beach (at least where I was) that waves were jacking up steep and closing out in the afternoon. With this swell being in the 10-11 sec range couldn't we see alot of close-outs again? Early saturday the angle may be better, but by Saturday afternoon and even Sunday we could be seeing fast steep closeouts again. Just a thought.

there is going to be a mix of SE and ENE, so that might help the closeout situation.

For the Delmarva, NOAA wavewatch III keeps slowly lowering the size of the SE groundswell with each model run....as of this morning its down to just 4-5 feet @ 11 seconds peaking overnight friday into saturday. Any thoughts?
